In this episode we dive into Greg's new Book the Physics of Project Acceleration.The ChallengeThere are 8 types of project acceleration.And 33 techniques to make them real.Most teams only think “crash the path” or “work weekends.” But acceleration isn’t about brute force. It’s about changing the model first—then making it real.Greg Lawton’s new book The Physics of Project Acceleration shows how. One equation. 33 tactics. Some cost, some save, some shift risk. The real constraint isn’t math—it’s contracts, culture, and trade handoffs.My favorite: the Long-Tail Slicing Sprint. In half a day, you break down the 20 riskiest tasks, tighten handoffs, and prove the gains with Monte Carlo. You don’t just go faster—you remove the variance that keeps you slow.When leadership says “pull the date forward,” will you reach for overtime—or a playbook?Continue LearningCheck out our new book The Critical Path Career: How to Advance in Construction Planning and SchedulingSubscribe to the Beyond Deadlines Email NewsletterSubscribe to the Beyond Deadlines Linkedin NewsletterCheck Out Our YouTube Channel.ConnectFollow Micah, Greg, and Beyond Deadlines on LinkedIn.Beyond DeadlineIt's time to raise your career to new heights with Beyond Deadlines, the ultimate destination for construction planners and schedulers.
